i really enjoyed this. very simple to make and tasty. i used yellow lentils and pizza sauce since i didn't have red lentils or tomato puree. i also skipped the beans since i didn't have any on hand. kids didn't like it but i thought it was yummy!

This is a good recipe but I didn't see any mention of salt in here. It was lacking a bit of flavor so i added a cube of chicken bouillon (maggi) and now its perfect! I used frozen whole spinach instead of chopped fresh and the outcome looks very appealing. I like to eat this on it's own but it would probably be good with roti or rice too.

Great, but I had to add a lot more Cumin, Chili Powder, and Red Peppers. I also followed someone else's suggestion and added a little bit of brown sugar.

Used fresh tomatoes and some red kidney beans and white navy beans. I kept adding spices as I was cooking this and still find the end result a bit bland. I added more cumin, garam masala, and also some curry powder. If I make this again I might add a jalapeno pepper too.

Very tasty! I thought it needed a little salt. Lightly salting my portion seemed to bring out all the indivdual flavors. I'll definitely make it again.

This was pretty good, definately healthy. I also added 2 tbsp brown sugar which really made it taste good and I put some soy sauce on top for a little more salt. I will make it again.

This was tasty! My husband especially liked it. The texture and flavor were lovely, lively but not super hot. I didn't have spinach though so I used frozen peas instead. I look forward to making it again!

Great recipe! Relatively quick & easy. I can't seem to find cans of mixed bean (I don't know if that's regional...) so I just used red kidney beans & thought that was perfect.

Finally, a curry I can be proud of! My neighbor is Indian and the most wonderful smells come from her apartment while she is cooking. After making this recipe, my kitchen smells the same and I love it! I used tomato paste and Greek-style yogurt. I also increased the spices by at least double. Instead of garam masala I used curry powder and tossed in some cayenne because I like my curry spicy. Instead of fresh tomatoes I used diced, fire-roasted canned tomatoes. They are sweet and the juice adds to the sauce nicely. For the beans I used half a can chick peas and half a can dark red kidney beans. I also took the advice of another cook and added some brown sugar. Really seemed to add something special. Also, use plenty of salt..there isn't any in the recipe and it does need it! Had this over rice with baked chicken. Wonderful!

This recipe was good but could have been a little spicier. It seemed to lose some of its flavor when I added all the lentils. I used frozen spinach, brown lentils, chickpeas, and cherry tomatoes cut in half, which added a nice flavor. Despite the lack of meat, my husband did not complain and complimented me on the dish. Next time I think I will put in more of the spices and roast them in the pan with the onion and oil. That seems to bring out the flavor in Indian food.

Oh my god, how good is this?! It came together in a jiffy, hardly had any time to taste it and adjust it along the way, then suddenly it was bang, there, so perfect. Even with the changes I had to make (frozen spinach, curry instead of garam masala, no cilantro) it is fabulous. Eating it over rice and with naan bread for lunch the next few days. But I'm going to have to make this again as a dinner for my vegetarian friends. So exciting!
